You can use one of those Prestone flush 'n fill kits they sell at any auto store or Walmart. It flushes pretty much all the old coolant out from what I understand. I haven't used one myself though. My 2012 came with the Honda blue coolant to begin with so all I've done is drained the radiator and refilled @ 100K miles when I did the timing belt and water pump.

don't be lazy, do it properly or you won't be able to get the coolant out of the engine block.
